Kalas Steals the Pot on the River

Livello 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Action was caught after the turn of 8♣5♣2♣6♠, and Dimitrios Michailidis bet pot (275,000). Kane Kalas made the call to the river.

While the river peeled off the K♠, Michailidis checked from the big blind. Kalas jammed all in for about 950,000.

Michailidis talked it out and mucked his hand. He told Kalas "I don't see many spots where you bluff here." With this pot, Kalas sits just over the average chip stack.
